Many who teach or are enrolled in classes on Death and Dying regularly hear critical remarks about these courses – mostly from individuals who have never attended such courses. This article suggests the value of a brief reflection on some examples of such remarks in order to put them into a more realistic context. More importantly, this article offers a depiction of what actually is taught in these types of courses. In short, this article offers a rebuttal to misrepresentations of courses on Death and Dying, while giving primary attention to what Death and Dying courses really have to teach about life and living
